Carl Gustav Jung was a Swiss psychiatrist and psychoanalyst who founded analytical psychology.
Jung’s work was influential in the fields of psychiatry, anthropology, archaeology, literature, philosophy, and religious studies.
Jung worked as a research scientist at the famous Burghölzli hospital, under Eugen Bleuler.
During this time, he came to the attention of the Viennese founder of psychoanalysis, Sigmund Freud.
The two men conducted a lengthy correspondence and collaborated, for a while, on a joint vision of human psychology.
